[We] walk, not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.—Romans 8:4.
You may wonder why Paul would stress to anointed Christians the danger of living “according to the flesh.” And could a similar danger today threaten Christians, whom God has accepted as his friends and views as righteous? Sadly, any Christian could begin to walk according to the sinful flesh. For example, Paul wrote that some among the brothers in Rome were slaves “of their own appetites,” which could have been sexual appetite or appetite for food, drink, or other things. Some of them were ‘seducing unsuspecting ones.’ (Romans 16:17, 18; Philippians 3:18, 19; Jude 4, 8, 12) Recall, too, that for a time, a brother in Corinth was “living with his father’s wife.” (1 Corinthians 5:1) It is understandable, then, why God used Paul to warn Christians about “setting the mind on the flesh.” (Romans 8:5, 6) That warning is equally valid now.
